Iranian ships turn away from, Yemen...April 24, 2015<br />Iranian ships turn away from, Yemen<br />By Rick Moran<br /><br />A convoy of Iranian ships that were thought to be carrying weapons for Houthi rebels has changed course and is no longer bound for Yemen, according to the US Navy.<br /><br />The climb down by Iran avoided a possible confrontation with Saudi and US warships enforcing a blockade of Yemen.<br /><br />AFP:<br /><br /> Yemeni Foreign Minister Riyadh Yassin on Thursday accused Tehran of trying to break a naval blockade on his country, describing the war as an "Iranian plot implemented by the Huthi militia".<br /><br /> A US official said Thursday the nine-ship Iranian convoy that had been heading for Yemen is "no longer on the same course".<br /><br /> The USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier and other American warships have deployed off Yemen's coast to track the Iranian flotilla and possibly prevent any arms deliveries to the Iran-backed Huthi Shiite rebels.<br /><br /> The flotilla included two "armed vessels," said the US official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.<br /><br /> It was possible the Iranians "could make a turn to Yemen at any time," the official added.<br /><br /> Iran is a key ally of the Huthis but vehemently denies arming them. It has presented a peace plan to the UN calling for a ceasefire and the formation of a unity government.<br /><br /> With international pressure mounting for a political solution, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon announced plans to appoint Mauritanian diplomat Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed as his new envoy to Yemen.<br /><br /> He replaces Morocco's Jamal Benomar, who resigned last week after losing support for his mediation efforts from oil-rich Gulf countries.<br /><br />With the arrival of the Roosevelt in the Gulf of Aden, Iran probably thought discretion was the better part of valor and will look to supply the Houthis some other way - possibly overland from Oman. As it stands now, the Houthis aren't hurting for weapons, although it is thought the Iranians may have been bringing shoulder fired anti-aircraft missiles to shoot down Saudi warplanes that have been bombing rebel positions at will.<br /><br />There appears to be more pressure being placed on the Saudis to make a deal, but the Houthis have shown no interest so far in sharing power and would balk at bringing President Hadi back in office. That said, they are getting beaten up badly by Arab airstrikes and they may look to pause the war long enough to consolidate their gains and prepare for round two.<br /><br />http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/04/iranian_ships_turn_away_from_yemen.html<br />Charltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337923317977922025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-82669767321503541502015-04-25T05:05:32.772-04:002015-04-25T05:05:32.772-04:00US cities increase security over Islamic State “ki...US cities increase security over Islamic State “kill list”<br /><br />April 24, 2015 3:47 pm By Robert Spencer <br /><br />Islamic State Libya ChristiansLast month we had the story of the U.S. military personnel being targeted, but not the particulars of the cities targeted. They’re listed below. “ISIS releases ‘Kill List'; Seven Texas cities included,” NewsChannel10, March 24, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):<br /><br /> The Pentagon has responded to a globally-released ‘Kill List’, asking law enforcement to give extra protection for military personnel whose personal information was released.<br /><br /> CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports the Pentagon spent the weekend notifying the soldiers who appeared on the list, and urged city police departments and military police to increase patrol in the neighborhoods where the targeted live.<br /><br /> The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) published the list days ago, a report that contained names, photos, and home addresses of U.S. Armed Forces personnel, causing alarm in cities potentially at high-risk.<br /><br /> According to the publication, ISIS urges followers and sympathizers in the U.S. to kill the servicemen. Specific personnel on the list are largely from the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy – branches of the country’s military that have conducted massive air strikes against ISIS.<br /><br /> The air strikes have left ISIS mostly defenseless, killing over 8,000 fighters with attacks carried out on more than 5,000 targets. But ISIS appears to be fighting back through forms of social media.<br /><br /> The Pentagon says the the targeted appeared to be compiled from public sources — anything from news articles to Facebook posts that could have linked them to attacks on the terrorist group. Officials with the Pentagon say some members were incorrectly identified, but right or wrong, it’s still a threat.<br /><br /> Seven Texas cities were included on the list: Abilene, New Braunfels, San Antonio, Wyle, Fort Hood, Bedford, and Kileen.<br /><br /> Cities expected to increase in security due to the threat are below:<br /><br /> ———–<br /><br /> Texas: Abilene, New Braunfels, San Antonio, Wyle, Fort Hood, Bedford, Kileen<br /><br /> Indiana: Michigan City, Bolivar<br /><br /> Michigan: Dearborn Heights, Lake Orion<br /><br /> Connecticut: Barkhamsted, Manchester<br /><br /> Nevada: Reno<br /><br /> Georgia: Griffin<br /><br /> Maryland: Upper Marlboro, Warrensburg, Lexington Park<br /><br /> Arizona: Phoenix<br /><br /> Louisiana: Shreveport, Bossier City<br /><br /> South Carolina: Daniel Island, Charleston<br /><br /> North Carolina: Fayetteville, New Bern<br /><br /> Virginia: Burke, Virginia Beach, Suffolk, Springfield, Norfolk, Chesapeake<br /><br /> Colorado: Colorado Springs<br /><br /> California: Manford, Solvang, San Ardo, Monterrey, Newberry Park, Carlsbad<br /><br /> New Mexico: Farmington<br /><br /> North Dakota: Minot<br /><br /> South Dakota: Rapid City<br /><br /> Florida: Merritt Island, Palm Coast, Saint John, Middleburg, Saint Augustine<br /><br /> Washington: Colton, Cheney, Seattle, Spokane, Ancortes<br /><br /> Nebraska: Bellvue<br /><br /> Illinois: Orland Park<br /><br /> Rhode Island: Newport<br /><br /> Idaho: Bonners Ferry<br /><br />http://www.jihadwatch.org/2015/04/us-cities-increase-security-over-islamic-state-kill-listCharltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337923317977922025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-79751162039183619092015-04-25T01:56:19.917-04:002015-04-25T01:56:19.917-04:00Can any one figure out what the hell Jack "De...Can any one figure out what the hell Jack "Dead Beat Dad And War Criminal" Hawkins is talking about ?

And it's partly for reasons that conservatives would be celebrating -- if only that didn't also mean celebrating “Obamacare.” <br /><br />The survey comes from the research firm J.D. Power and Associates. More than 3,000 people who purchased private insurance through one of the Affordable Care Act marketplaces last year participated, representing 11 states. The questions covered a variety of issues -- from quality of customer service to the adequacy of doctor and hospital networks. The survey also solicited opinions about the benefits of the plans and the costs.<br /><br />The answers were surprisingly positive, at least by the standards of health insurance in America. J.D. Power uses a numerical index, from zero (low) to 1,000 (high), to measure consumer satisfaction. The figure for Affordable Care Act consumers was<b> 696</b>. To put that in perspective, the figure for people with employer-sponsored insurance -- the source of coverage for most working-age Americans -- was <b>670.</b> <br /><br />The survey found that people who were buying plans for the second consecutive year were more satisfied than those buying for the first time. Those buying plans through marketplaces that the federal government operates, rather than marketplaces that the states run, also tended to be happier.<br /><br /> The J.D. Power study is not the first to suggest that the majority of Obamacare consumers are content with what they are getting for their money. One year ago, the Commonwealth Fund published another survey of people who had received coverage through the Affordable Care Act. <br /> <br />Like the J.D. Power study, the Commonwealth survey included respondents who bought insurance through the marketplaces and frequently benefitted from generous federal tax credits. But it also polled people who got their insurance through . . . .<br /><br /><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/04/24/buying-obamacare-insuranc_n_7136606.html" rel="nofollow">Happy, Happy</a><br />Rufus IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297231055991566183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-85839757895187176552015-04-24T14:29:53.298-04:002015-04-24T14:29:53.298-04:00BwabwabwahahahahaBwabwabwahahahahaCharltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337923317977922025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-53392431952803231002015-04-24T14:29:23.230-04:002015-04-24T14:29:23.230-04:00Memorial Day is one month away.
